5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic - easy, not scary and it works!, 9 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Having tried lots of other ways to help my severely dyslexic but very intelligent oldest son, aged 8, I had almost given up. Having four young children my time is limited and so many other systems seemed to ask the impossible - and to blame you as a parent if you were simply unable to provide the sort of help that really only parents of only children can!

This system is different. Yes, you do need a few minutes of peace a day, but even I can do that. There is no huge barrier to overcome - it starts with the letters of the alphabet and moves on not step by step but as it says toe by toe.

After three weeks on the system my son gained nearly six months in reading age and better still he looked forward to doing his exercises each day. I showed him the end of the book and explained that reading that was where we were going to get to - together, toe-by-toe. He wantes to make it and he can see that he can do it - little by little. Now we are two months in - we haven't reassessed his reading age but he read a whole page of Harry Potter to himself recently, just like his friends do. Nine weeks ago he couldn't read the word 'dam' or 'set'. He seems six inches taller almost!

This has a lot to do with the fact that the book also implicitly boosts self confidence - there are no huge gaps to fill, and the exercises are each only minutely more advanced than the previous one so there is a good deal of familiar territory mixed in with the new things.

I simply have no criticisms for this book. As far as I am concerned this book is IT for dyslexia. Buy it and use it!

5.0 out of 5 stars It works. Takes a year or more to complete but worth it., 24 May 2002
By A Customer
This book goes through every small step of learning to read. If you like structure and rules then this method will help. You need a long term committment as with all dyslexic progress it is slow but it definately helps. You need a helper as well as the dyslexic. Not just for teachers, I work ten minutes a day with my daughter and we have both benefitted. I feel this is something I can do to help. You can make positive progress with this scheme but you need to keep at it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, 7 Nov 2003
By Deborah (Heywood, Lancs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I can't stress enough the difference this book has made to my son. We are only two months into toe by toe and already his reading has dramatically improved. Its the best £25 you will ever spend.
